Oh, the fight inside me;
The confusion in my head,
All killing me inside,
Cutting me to shreds.
Why are you back?
You say you still care,
Yet I believe you, but I don't;
I'm so cold, so scared.
The scars and wounds won't heal,
Oh, and the memories just don't wield
The love I once thought was real.
Agony and confusion just reveal
The happiness you once made me feel.
Tonight, my mind and heart won't conceal
The fight inside that tortures me still.
My heart is breaking,
But nothing has been done.
Friendship healing,
But my heart is numb.
The scars and wounds won't heal,
Oh, and the memories just don't wield
The love I once thought was real.

Wake up, see the sunshine out?
Get up, play guitar, play it out
Cuz there's a reason for the sound,
A reason to play loud.
The reason is a girl and a Father,
Both whom loves me very much.
So I'm not giving up, not giving in,
Cuz I'm in love with you;
This'll never end.
Forgive me for my mistakes,
I have never meant to hurt you.
I'm nothing special, I'm not the best;
Imperfect, no good for you.
It's a miracle you take me
When I only bruise your arms.
I want to hold you tight,
But I only stretch the scars.
You're all I know,
But you don't have to stay.
I only bring tears to your eyes,
There's better out there than me.
Forgive me for my mista
Tonight, my ears are ringing,
But my heart remains seeking.
These tears keep falling,
And it's only me calling.
Tonight, I beat these drums
To the rhythm of a broken heart.
I'll cover heavy songs with anger,
So let the music start.
Cuz I'm taking it out tonight.
I'm reinforcing the walls by night.
I'll turn up my guitar,
Down-tune so far,
And make music that's dark.
I'll beat my drums out of hate.
No, I just can't wait
To move from this place;
This hate you dared create.
Reach down to me,
Give me the light to see.
I can't make it, can't be;
Without you, life's misery.
Can't seem to hold close,
Just seem to fall away.
I need you to step on my toes,
To show me what I'm letting be.
Extinguinsh my flames inside.
I just can't seem to hide
From the wrong things, I try,
But I fail, and I'm drowned by the tides.
I'll never be who I wanna be.
I'm just a failure, that's all i see.
No, there's nothing inside me
But words and promises empty.
Can't seem to hold close,
Just seem to fall away.
I need you to step on my toes
To show me what I'm letting be.
Extinguinsh my flames inside.
I just can't seem to hide

Couldn't sleep,
Wakin' up to see the day.
It's been a year since my regrets,
And I'm tryin' to see the light of day.
Horizon's risin' and I'm far from dyin'.
Happiness on earth
Really is existin'.
So I'll keep my eyes open,
Stright ahead down my path.
Don't know where it's leadin'
But I'm avoiding the wrath.
Take my hand and follow,
Cuz this life we hold is bliss.
There's not a moment today
That I would wanna miss.
Words ring through my head
Of the way she had maimed me,
It's sad that back then
I thought she had tamed me.
Like a useless animal;
No control at all.
Just there to sit and stare
As I await her killing call.
So I'll keep my eyes
Life's light was gone,
You gave it back. You showed me how to live
Happily and on track.
Tonight, I can't see myself
Without you next to me,
No, not without you against me.
Stay close to me.
My love, you're everything
And you've thrown away my fears.
My life has gone from dusk to dawn
With you always near, my dear.
I was broken, never to be repaired,
But you've picked me up and gathered
All my pieces and all my shards,
And now I'm no longer shattered.
My love, you're everything
And you've thrown away my fears.
My life has gone from dusk to dawn
With you always near, my dear.
Oh, my hope was gone.
I didn't know who I'd become,
Nor what I b
You were everything around,
You were all I wanted.
Without you, I would fall;
I thought I took you for granted.
Didn't want you to fall away,
Never wished for you to leave,
And today, I'm on my knees.
Today, I'm in disbelief that
My life is better now that
You're gone from sight and out of mind.
I can't live my life unless
I convince myself you don't exist.
I thought you loved me every day,
I listened when you said "don't leave".
But your only plan was to tear me apart
And kill me with your wicked ways unseen.
My life is better now that
You're gone from sight and out of mind.
I can't live my life unless
I convince myself you don't exist.

Lift Thy chalice in the skies
Lift Thy chalice in the skies
change the water into wine
that's what happens when Thy glory
with nature intertwines
Living creatures all will praise
hearts unfold and eyes will gaze
upon the King of Kings
in union all will fall on their knees
in the presence of the Lord of Lords

Whose altar do we bring
all our offering
Whose Name shall we sing
Who is the eternal King?
Jehovah God almighty
Reigning God forever
Altogether three- The Father
Son and Holy Spirit
Trinity who set us free
Holy, Holy, Holy
Thy alone are Shepherd
Thy alone whose hands are sufficiency
Thy alone do praises belong

Lately I've had my eyes reopened to Christ. I mean, I've been feeling....pretty empty and reckless lately. Nothing is keeping me on my feet and after going to church yesterday, I felt so, so alive. Cliche, I know. Something that occurred to me yesterday is this: God loves us so much, that He sent Jesus to be killed by us and our relatives and ancestors so that we could stand by God when we die, and if we don't care, then was his death in vain? No. He died for those who would come to him. He died for those who chose to believe in God and follow him. He died for all those who sin (all of mankind) so that we COULD go to him one day and live with
